"Dutch Oven" is English for farting under the bed clothes.

Translussion - Life/Don't be afraid of Evolution
Warp's bio of it is rather misleading, "...It was essentially overlooked on release but is worth a closer look." There's a reason it was overlooked; It's shite, and even most people who treat Drexciya with the same regard as the people who bought Smojphace do Aphex Twin, slated it.
Thankfully I only bought the EP (without hearing it) and it's absolute junk. A great example of something selling based on the artist's name/history. There is no doubt that if you or I had sent these tracks in to labels, not even Mego would have released it.

lol
there are songs i dont like there, but it's good imo, takes time to click but it was meant to be different in mood/production/style and it shows, it's some of the weridest electro-techno i ever heard
and since when people who like all an artist output are a reference when it comes to the new of stuff of said artist, specificaly when it is meant to be different to the old stuf??
you are, off course, allowed to dislike it, but you're wrong saying it's shit ;-)

"and since when people who like all an artist output are a reference when it comes to the new of stuff of said artist,

The point I was making wasn't that it was a different direction, so it upset the fans of their earlier work. It was more the fact that even the hardcore Drexciya fanboys (and there are a lot of them, who think anything they do is great, a lot like people who think just because a release is by Aphex, it's automatically gold), tended to recieve it badly. By and large, people who didn't like Drexcyia's old stuff didn't like this, either.
So, back to my original point, even if you and some other people like it, the main reason Translussion - Life (and the associated EP) were "overlooked" is that a lot of people didn't like it and even more read/heard from word of mouth how poor a lot of people thought it was. It wasn't for a reason that was nothing to do with the music, eg overlooked due to it coming out the same month as a new BoC and Ae and Aphex and Squarepusher album all came out, or anything like that.
Anyway, glad you like it, you can buy my copy of the EP once it's worth something, if you like :)

I bought a ray kieth record for someone once, but it turned out to be such garbage that I couldnt bear to give it to them, so I gave them a good one from my collection, and now I cant seem to throw it out
